Soldiers Pose With Dead Afghans
I wonder how the White House was able to keep this from the news for the past 3 to 4 months. This makes the pictures from Abu Ghraib look like nothing.

Re: Soldiers Pose With Dead Afghans
it has been in the news...i'ts just that now charges are set and court proceedings have started.
What is disgusting is the fact that non of these guys will get the death penalty.

Re: Soldiers Pose With Dead Afghans
Considering Tunisia, Egypt, the Arizona shooting, Libya, and now Japan have been commanding all the headlines...

Re: Soldiers Pose With Dead Afghans
This is downright awful. As much as I appreciate our armed forces, a lot of these grunts on the ground aren't the sharpest tools in the box.

NATO, under the leadership of the US Army, has been preparing for possible publication of the photos for close to 100 days. In dozens of high-level talks with their Afghan partners, military leaders have sought to pursue the same strategy used by the US diplomatic corps in the case of the sensitive diplomatic cables released late last year by WikiLeaks. They warned those most directly affected and made preparations for the photos' appearance in the public sphere. This "strategic communication" was aimed at preventing a major public backlash. |

Re: Soldiers Pose With Dead Afghans
Just because you aren't aware of the news it doesn't mean it isn't in the news. I would suggest you find alternate news outlets.

Re: Soldiers Pose With Dead Afghans
So how can this be made to be Bush's and Rumsfeld's fault like Abu Ghraib?
